Jeffery won the Social Equity Report category for her outstanding series of articles ’Til death do us part.

Social equity involves the protection and proper treatment of the most vulnerable in our society.

The judges said Jeffery’s story was about a woman who was so close to death that she was unconscious when a celebrant performed a marriage ceremony that outraged the woman’s family, turned them against the groom/fiance and ultimately saw the celebrant censured.
